ID: A18744331Age: About 2½ years oldSex: FemaleBreed: Hound/pit bull mixHey, I'm Coffee! I'm a sweet girl who's looking for someone to be my forever best friend. Even though I might be shy when we first meet, just spend a little time with me and you'll see my personality shine.I have lots of energy and would love it if my new forever best friend would take me on long walks and maybe even teach me how to go running and hiking. I love to play tag, and I'm trying to figure out fetch but that silly ball just always gets away from me.I love to sit next to you and be loved on and get lots of pets and belly rubs, but my favorite is when I get brushed. It makes me feel like such a pretty girl.After I had my puppies, my old family realized they had more pets than they could properly care for. I'm so ready to find a new forever family that would never, ever leave me behind. Since I get a little nervous in new situations and around loud noises and fast movements, the staff here thinks I would do best in a home with children older than 12 and, since I used to have doggy brothers and sisters, they also think I would love to have more.

If you think you could be the forever best friend and new family I've been searching for, please fill out an application. I'll be here waiting. Adoption fee: $85

ID: A17430279Age: About 1 year oldSex: MaleBreed: Domestic shorthairSpeckles is a handsome boy who is almost 1 year old. He was surrendered to the SHS, along with his brother, because his family could not keep him indoors and didn't think their neighborhood was safe for a wandering kitty. With his brother already adopted, Speckles is ready to get started on the rest of his life.Speckles' first family described him as a gentleman who likes to be adored from afar. He does not like to be held and isn't afraid to voice his objection if you try. He is more of a loner who would probably prefer a safe outdoor home or an indoor/outdoor home.While Speckles is not into heavy petting, he does know how to be a quiet buddy who can sit by your side (and butt his head into you for petting on his terms).It will take Speckles some time to adjust to a new home. Expect him to spend a few days playing hard to get until he feels comfortable. His life has been a little upside down and he needs patience and understanding to succeed in his next and last home.

Adoption fee: $49Meet more animals for adoption at www.spartanburghumane.org/AdoptMe.
